The New York money market during

Of any undue apprehension. The pol
icy Of the Treasury in increasing the
government deposits with the MS

in adding TO the supply Of loanable funds
which, with the general feeling tina. the
movement of money will within q short
time be from the interior toward the east,
ms relaxed the conservatism shown by
lenders short time back. The demand
for money has also become less sharp,
which is not without its influence On the

A CURE FOR CoNsUMPTIoN.-Att the meet
ing of the hospital co mmittee of the board
of guardians of the Philadelphia poor yes.
terday, Dr. T. n Mclaughlin, physician-in-
chief of the Philadelphia Hospital, present
ed report of the success of the treatment
adopted about one month ago for patients
in the institution suffering from consump.
ton. He said that go far the success of the
treatment was almost marvellous, and in the
cases which had agreed to submit to the
methods adopted, no other had been used.
DR.. Mclaughlin frat obtained the idea from
q paper read before college of science, at a
recent meeting in Paris, by one of the pro-
fessors in the University Of Lyons. 1t was
recommended so highly and had shown
such gratifying results in France that
DR.. Mclaughlin decided to test it in the
hospital. He explained tho treatment to
the patients when thirty Of them agreed to
submit to the operation. To these patients
who were considered to be suffering from
the last stages of consumption, two rectal
injections of carbonic acid gas prepared by
the process given by the French physicians
were given each day, all the medicine being
abandoned The patients at once began to
show signs of improvement. The night
sweets ceased as if by magic, the almost
constant pains from which they suffered
vanished, the excretions of the body were
regular and became natural, and the appe-
tte returned. The sick grew brighter and
stronger each day, and since the beginning
of the treatment one of the number has
gained twelve pounds in weight while others
have gained from three 10 five pounds in
the came time. How far the improvement
will continue under the treatment cannot
yet be judged, but the results have been so
satisfactory that DR.. Mclaughlin has aban-
doned all other remedies in the treatment
of patients who can be induced to submit
to the operation, and he is so agreeably sur.
prised at the results that he feels almost
ready to say that cure for consumption,
which has always been considered fatal
when once developed, has been found.

Cardinal Gibbons, in Rome yesterday, in
speaking on the subject of the knights of
labor in America, among other things said !:
cat the outset felt sure there was wide.
spread belief in our community that the
American hierarchy, in the face of all the
unhappy difficulties which had arisen or
might arise in the future between capital
and labor, would always endeavor to range
itself, irrespective of the possible conse-
quences, upon the side of order, justice and
right. But what constitutes justice and right
in given concrete and sometimes complex
case is often q question Of serious difficulty.
The American bishops and archbishops
are unable to see anything of an objection
able nature in the constitution of the knights
of labor as the order is at present represented
TO the world. What effect the future action
of the knights. arising from future develop
ments or notifications, might have on the
hierarchy, 1 am unwilling to say, as the
case is at present before us. / do not
think there should be any opposi-
ton between labor and capital. One
without the other is practically useless.
One thing is certain, the principles OF
anarchy must be discountenaHced. They
can work no good, even to these who invoke
and seek their enforcement aud must sure
IL result in disaster" His Eminence went
on to say that Americans have practically
seen the last of those violent outbursts Of
misguided men, in land where there are
such capacities for prosperity and happiness.
